Gus, I really appreciate the thread. However, you seem to like to pose questions and riddles to provoke people into thinking (and learning). Fine. But the problem is many of us don't have enough understanding or foundation to even begin to follow your riddles.
Instead, would you consider explaining some of the foundation in the circuit so we could be brought up to speed to the point where we'd understand what you're talking about? When things are explained, I get it, and I learn. And I feel deeply appreciative and it's why many of us are here. But when they are posed as cryptic riddles in a circuit we don't know how to read it's just a waste of time.
Not all of us are designers or techs. We're musicians, we're busy with music and production and gigs and scheduling and licensing and mixing and troubleshooting, and we're here because we have the intellectual curiosity to understand as much as we can about our gear, how to maintain it, how to service it, how to use it best, sometimes how to build it... please take these considerations into account. Many are not even amateur techs or designers...
Many of us are beyond the point in our lives and careers where an EE class is an option, and we don't have time to search old threads and hunt for clues without knowing even where to begin, or even guess at what questions to ask, without some context and foundation. We need to be efficient with our time or we sink.
It seems it would be much more generous and friendly to simply explain as you go, otherwise you are losing some of your audience.
I have several stock V67s but really have no clue what you are talking about in this thread so far and it's frustrating. Some background information would be most helpful. Don't assume anything. Please.
If you don't mind that some of us will not get what you're talking about and cannot participate, well fine. I'm merely suggesting the effectiveness of your posts could increase dramatically and find a larger appreciative audience.
I know you hate to give out "free" information, from having followed your posts for years, here. You want people to discover things on their own. However, this riddle style just leaves me totally in the dark.
This is all meant as constructive feedback, please don't attack me with sarcasm or dismissals, ,etc. I'm glad you are posting to begin with, just expressing some points which may, or may not, be helpful.
PS: I'll give you some riddles in return: What is EF biasing? Where do you control it? What does it do? How do you "sim?" What is the purpose of that discussion? Which cap and resistor adjustments are you referring to? Why and how would I begin to know what they do? Etc. I hope you get the picture.
If you refer me to off-thread resources, I won't have time unfortunately, though it may be helpful in a larger context. Instead, would it be possible for you to explain a bit what's going on in this
specific circuit you have posted and therefore make your riddles specific and definable?
